Way Hay!

See, told you I'd keep an eye on things.

Hope DS4 is okay?

Is DS4 OK? Hope you both have a good nights sleep. Any sort of hospital stay is draining. Nice welcome home though.

Hope there's more action tomorrow! Get ready Lulu (the chicken that is, not the midwife). !!

Two more on the way. There is a lot of cheeping going on. First one now sitting under heat lamp in brooder. Very, very cute.

DS4 had a good night. He is being very good. Every now and again he gets bladder spasms but we are coping.

Some sleep but will take it easy today and watch chicks hatch. Will do some photos later

5 cheeping cracking eggs - this is SO exciting, but so slow!

Nice to be on the other side of a birth for a change but boy am I inpatient.
